SDCC Once Upon a Time Season 6 Trailer Reveal ...


Check this trailer out ... the trailer for the upcoming season of Once Upon a Time! I've been waiting for them to do an Aladdin story from the beginning. They came close when they did Once Upon a Time in Wonderland with a mad cast of characters - Jafar was in love with the Queen of Hearts and so obviously he was in the storyline, but where was Aladdin? A big question I have is why didn't they cast the actor who portrayed him in Wonderland for this upcoming season? Why switch around actors? Maybe he was busy, but the Knave of Hearts/Will portrayed by Michael Socha was in both series, so why not Naveen Andrews? According to IMDB.com, Andrews is in Sense8 on Netflix, so maybe he was too busy to be recast as Jafar. Either way, I'm a stickler for changing actors. I always hated on General Hospital, or any soap opera for that matter, when actors were switched around. I know now that those actors got other roles, but still it messed with my emotions. I got used to Lucky as Jonathan Jackson and I liked that Lucky. Whoever came after was just not the same - and I know he reprised the role later on and I started watching again, but the show was never the same for me again.

But back to Once ... the upcoming season is looking good. I wonder what Jafar means by Aladdin being the savior. Is he like Emma? He obviously has some kind of magical powers because it looks like people come to him for help or to be healed. But who really knows. The trailer doesn't give too much away.

For more on Once and the new season check out this article from Entertainment Weekly. Talks about the upcoming series straight from the San Diego Comic-con Panel. It's looking to be a good season.

Witchy Tiaras

I'm almost done with Shadow of Night ...I won't give a run down of the book until I'm done, so instead I'm going to discuss a little show called Toddlers and Tiaras - some may be aware of this show as it has been on for a few years now on TLC. I watch this show on a regular basis - 1. Because I can't help watching a train wreck happen 2. Because there's nothing else on and reality tv can be pretty entertaining 3. I can't understand how some parents can put their children through something so grueling and cruel as a beauty pageant. Now, you may think that because I watch the show I condone this sort of behavior and in turn I am one of the many viewers that keep shows like this on tv. But, let me explain a little bit. My mind works in ways that make it attracted to things that I can not explain or understand - for example I'm fascinated by the Holocaust, beauty pageants and witches, vampires and werewolves (not the Twilight kind either). Beauty pageants ...

Fevre Dream - George R.R. Martin

The vampire novel "Fevre Dream" by George R.R. Martin has only a few things in common with his "Game of Thrones" series - character development and setting. Everything else about the book is a far cry from the fictional world of Westeros. First published in 1982, "Fevre Dream" precedes the famous book and now television series by a few years and yet I only just read it. Set in 1857 along the Mississippi River, Martin brings to life the world of riverboats and vampires. Abner Marsh is a struggling riverboat captain longing for a fast steamboat to race along the Mississippi. Joshua York, a wealthy, pale stranger, is his answer. Though at the time, Marsh believes York to be aspiring steamboat captain, he soon learns that York isn't what he seems. He never comes out during the day and drinks only from his supply locked away in his cabin. He also has been collecting newspaper clippings of disappearances along the river. When Marsh confronts York abou...

Shadow of Night

So I finished the book Shadow of Night ...it was amazing! I can not wait until the third installment comes out and I hope that its soon. The character development of Matthew and Diana is great. Throughout the book they find out more about themselves and each other, even though they are decades in the past. Matthew, because he lived in that time period, has to revert back to his old ways and the reader can see how different was in the past compared to the present. When time traveling, you learn that you are not supposed to alter time. Matthew and Diana left an important mark on Elizabethan London and the rest of history. Historical figures come and go throughout the book, such as Christopher Marlowe, Walter Raleigh, Queen Elizabeth and a brief mention of William Shakespeare. Diana was there to learn more about her magic, but only developed her power towards the end when a surprising character appears and helps rid her of her fear of magic. There are plenty more characters in the book, ...
